Fun While It Lasted

Welp.

They’re coming for the Internet.

Yesterday’s vote means that your service provider can slow things down, certain sites may now have a fee attached.

You paying for Facebook?

Me neither.

I caught the first five minutes of a speech from the blobiating orange dude (all I could take of the snorting, sniffling, heavy breathing and slurring).

“Regulations. Gotta’ get rid of all the heavy regulations.”

Sure.

What could go wrong?

Remember when the banking industry had those pesky regulations relaxed?

You know why you need regulations?

One word.

Greed.

You know what the net neutrality argument is all about?

One word.

(See above).

Who knows?

Maybe we just take a deep breath and see how it all works out. I don’t know if too many people who were thinking:

“Damn, the internet access is really cool, I hope someone can figure out a way to charge us for it.”

I also don’t know anyone who was thinking:

“Damn! We need to start taking care of the rich dudes!!”

But maybe it’ll all work out...

...and maybe it won’t.

Most of us won’t know one way or another...

...’cause only those who got their taxes cut will be able to surf the Net.
